History
The Pavlov First Saint-Petersburg State Medical University was founded in September 14 (26) 1897 as the Medical Institute for Women. It was the first institution in Europe that provided an opportunity for women to acquire higher medical education.
On 28 March 1917 it provided the venue for the inaugural meeting of the Free Association for the Development and Dissemination of Positive Science (SARRPN).
The University has changed a few names since the time of its foundation: the Women’s Medical Institute of St. Petersburg (1918), The First Medical Institute of Leningrad, also known as «the 1st Med»(1924). This name went down in history of St. Petersburg and Russian medicine. In 1936 the First Medical Institute was named in honor of the Nobel Prize winner Academician Ivan Pavlov. In 1994 the First Medical Institute was reorganized into a medical university that received its present name.
In the 1930s the Institute of Chemistry and Pharmacy as well as the Institute of Pediatrics were detached from the First Medical Institute and established as independent units. In the meantime construction of new units and laboratory buildings were already in the design phase but the Second World War interfered with fulfilling that plan. The 1960s–1980s were marked by construction of new academic buildings, hostels, research laboratories, thus, ‘the 1st Med’ gained its present-day appearance. In the 1990s, a number of departments evolved into Research Institutes.
